Minister Pendietou's Ardunus Du-
ties,

ties.
Hon. George II. Pendlecon, our Minis
ter to Germany, left for his post OF duty
on Wednesday. When he returned to
this country few weeks ago On visit 1t
was believed to some extent that he had
been called home to succeed Mr.. NJ aiming
as Secretary OF the Treasury, Even 30
late as a week ago it was published that
he had accepted the place; that he would
hurry back to Berlin TO wind up his al
fairs there, and be back in Washington
within ten days after April TO take the
Secretaryship OF the Tire asury.
1t seems pretty clear now that he is not
to have place In the Cabinet. 1t is not
improbable that he came homo 10 see
what chance there was of getting Gao!-
net position. He doubtless would rather
be part OF the administration than
government agent abroad. II he came
home with any such idea, however, ne
must have been disabused of it very soon.
He likes his ease most too we'll to man.
age successfully a great department OF
the government.
1t seems, however, that he thinks ne is
worked very hard at Berlin. To re-
porter, just before he started on his re-
turn trip, he said that his escape from
his "arduous duties" at the German
capital had afforded him an opportunity
to recuperate, and that he felt very much
invigorated by his trip. The general i'm
preston is that the duties OF our minis
tiers to foreign countries are not very
arduous, out perhaps this impression is
mistaken enc. Some misinformed Con-
gressmCD have gone so far within the
the last year or two to suggest that the
expense OF maintaining ministers and
their assistants az the capitals of other
governments might just as well be
avoided as not, since all the important
business that this govern ment transacts
with other governments IL almost wholly
done by the State Department direct.
IL would not be surprising il
about the hardest work that Mr.. Pendle-
ton and some others of our foreign minis
tiers do is to find WAYS to pass the
time pleasantly while waiting for some
thing to do. To "kill time" and be happy
is not an easy matter, and perhaps Mr..
Pendlet0n was right after all when he
referred to his ''ardu0us duties"

THE CHOLERA.
Arrival OF n Vessel at New York With Chol'

Arrival of a Vessel at New York with Chol-
era on Board-No Fears Apprehsndcd.
New York, Sept. 24.-Tho steamship
Alesia, which arrived below Thursday
night from MaTseilles and Naples, WITH 6N
passengers has Asiatic cholera ABOARD.
Eight of her passengers died on the voyage,
and on her arrival at quarantine the health
officer found four cases aboard. de sent
the Alesia and her passengers to west
Bank in the lower bay. The steamer
Alesia Captain Vallat, sailed from Naples
when the cholera was raging IN that Guy
and in the vicinity, and an even worse form
tn other Italian ports and in syria. IhoSe
who were taken sick got aboard at Naples.
NO PEARS AT WAsHINGToN
WksHINGTON, Sept. 4.-Dr. Hamilton,
Surgeon General Of the Marine Hospital
Service, said last night that the arrival OF a
single ship at New York infected with
Asiatic cholera need not give occasion Ior
alarm. In his judgment the health officer
at New York would be able to handle the
cases at quarantine without difficulty. Inc
sick would, of course, he said, be properly
isolated and we'll removed to safe place,
their clothing aud baggage fumigated and
disinfected, the ship thoroughly cleansed
and her cargo removed and disiniected.
The experiences of the past were not hkeIy
to be repeated because the value OF pre-
cautionary measures were now appreciated
aud their lessons too well understood by
health officers throughout the country Tor
them to neglect to take any precautions
necessary on an occasion OF TINS hlnd.
History Of past epIdemiCs had shown mat
1t was only by repeated arrivals OF cholera
infected vessels that the disease
gained a foothold in this country. 1t
was not Indigenous and the climate and
soil were not favorable TO its propagation,
but like all contagious diseases II might be
Imported if not guarded against. As an IL
lustration Of the fact that it had broken
out after the arrival Of several cholera
laden vessels, he cited the great epidemic
of 1892 He believed the disease was
brought here from Canada, q ship bound
for Quebec from Ireland arriving at Inc
Crosse Isle quarantine in April with lfO
emigrants and having twenty-nine deaths
from cholera during the voyage. But 1t
WAS not until after the third cholera-ln-
fected ship arrived in June that the disease
broke out on shore. 1t then spread through,
out Canada and New York State.
DisinfectIon was not practiced at that
time nor was soiled clothing renovated nor
any precautions taken, TO neglect which in
this day would be criminal In November,
1S4S, the ship New York arrived at New
York from Havre with eleven cases OF
cholera on board and seven deaths on the
VOYAGE. The number of cases increased TO
twenty the next day. finally reaching sixty
three cases and tWenty-nlne deaths, cnt
winter setting in quite severely the disease
entirely subSidpd.

WILLIAM O'BRlEN.
An Exciting Time on His Examination at
MitchelstOwD.

MitchelstOwD.
DUBLIN, Sept. 24.-Willla OBrien, who
is charged by the Government with sedi-
tion under the Coercion act. was taken yes
terday from the Cork Jail TO Mitchelstown,
where the alleged seditious language was
used, to stand trial before the court there
As he left Cork under guard OF detach-
ment of hussars and police he was loudly
Cheered and upon his ARRIVAL at mlIchcIs-
town he was received with tremendous
cheering by a large crowd which had gath
cred to welcome him. The crowd mani
tested great CXCitment, but there was no
indications of disorder. O'Brien was I'M
mediately conveyed by his guards to the
court room Many English ladies We're
present TO witness the trial and Mr.
O'Bricn was the recipient Of bouquets
from number of them.
When the case was opened several police
men were called as witnesses for the Gov
ernment and testified from memory as to
O'Brien's language, which, they asserted
tended to incite his listeners to violence
During the hearing Of this evidence pro-
cession, armed with sticks and headed by
a wagon carrying a band, marched into the
town from the country. The hussars
stopped the wagon but allowed the other
part of the procession to proceed. The pro
cession took up position close to the court
room but order was observed.
Constable Foley admitted that the notes
he had made of what O'Brien had said in
his speech had been made the next morning
from memory, the head constable having
told him to write report. He was not
asked to produce it for many days after.
He could not swear that O'Brlen spoke in
the order in which the words appeared IN
the notes.
Harrington declared that deliberate at
tempt had been made to suppress Constable
O'Sullivan's report of O'Brien's speech,
whereupon Carson said the observation
was pure fabrication, which caused Har-
rington to cry you lie"
Magistrate Eaton interrupted: Il can
not allow such remarks here. II you re-
peat them you will be removed from
court" and Harrington answered excited
ly, ~ on need not trouble yourself, l shall
remove myself. shall have nothing more
to do with such a solemn farce" An eX-
cited crowd followed the car in which
O'Brien was taken back TO prison, hooting
and yelling at the soldiers, who had fixed
bayonets. Dillon and a number Of priests
paciiied the crowd.

Iron Company's coal mines at Coal Creek
refused to go in the mines, on the oath, and
the guards opened fire on them, woundine

free circulation Of air.
